[Q] No manual update....? - myTouch 3G Slide Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I heard about there being a software update for the mytouch slide. I went to do a manual search and found no option to even do so. Does the MT3GS not have a manual update search? Please let me know.

In the dev sectio. The update.zip is there

My question was about searching for a manual update. I went to wear the manual update would be and theres no option.

The option isn't there. Why make a thread about it?

Are you referring to the option on the G1 (and possibly others) in settings that allowed you to check for updates? No the slide does not have that option.

To see if there was a problem with my phone or if the slide just didn't have it. Why would you post something if you're just gonna be a jerk about it?

Anyone able to forward the new update via sms?

Was wondering if that is an option like forward the t mobile message and see if it works that way as I have not gotten this update and no access to a pc or laptop at this moment.

If you want it that bad, go here:

Download the file, place it on your sd card.
Turn off your phone
Hold the volume down, and turn it back on.
When you get to the screen with the skateboarding androids, select apply update.zip
Wait for it to finish. It will turn on and off 2-3 times. When it's done, it'll turn back on completely. Congratulations, you have now manually updated.
Like I said above I do not have access to a computer or laptop at this moment.

I Have Tried..
I have followed all instructions to the letter, but I get the Red Triangle of Death. Any thoughts?

Before they did the update I could of sworn the Slide had the ability to do manual updates. I could be wrong though.

[Q] Why doesn't my Wifi Tether app work?

So the first rom I put on my phone after i rooted it the really hard way with the cmd prompt was the teamfenix1.7 rom. With that rom my wifi tether app worked but now that I have CR_Mod_1.35.531_OTA it doesn't work...neither does my wifi. How do I fix it? Is it fixable? Barnacle Wifi doesn't work either!! Please help me!

It's not like we HAVE to help you, you know.
Did you wipe when switching roms? Have you tried wiping and reflashing?

You flashed the ota kernel and it doesn't have tether support..
Wipe reflash the base rom and No OTA

Well miguel I thought any expert dev/modder such as yourself or rayray or whatever y'all call yourselfs could easily answer what I consider to be an easy quick fix. Yes I have wiped and reflashed about 4 different froyo roms and anytime I use the wifi tether app, my phone freezes and then reboots...but only with that app. Oh and I saw something about barnacle wifi and tried that...but my laptop doesn't pick up the signal. Would flashing the latest radio do anything? Hey rayray what do you mean by the base rom?

Which version are you using? 2.0.2 or 2.0.5 pre 13?
I'm actually using 1.35 something like that...I found it in the rom bible. Apparently it isn't the latest version haha. Can you post a link to where the latest one is? Plz? I would greatly appreciate it!

Oh wait did u mean the radio? Uhh let me check.

The latest version of CR_MOD is 1.35something. It's the latest firmware version (official) for the slide. That's where the number comes from. If you're looking for the latest tethering app I'll post it. As far as the radio, it's in my signiture and CR_MOD has it set to flash when you load the rom.

No sound..

Last night I was cleaning up my SD card through File Manager and I deleted the Zedge Folder. Now today I cannot no matter what setting I turn off or on the sound will not come on for Notification or Phone calls. I am rooted and re-did the fix permissions and restored the back up, still nothing. I'm running out of ideas and thought maybe somone else might have had the same issue.
I downloaded quick settings from the market after searching some other threads and that did not work either. Any assistance would be appreciated.
Oh I am using the XM-8 Stripped Version Rom.

Problems with roaming...

I had roam control on my phone not too long ago & it worked perfect. Nothing it didn't do that I wanted it to..
Well I recently put it back on my phone & it's still working , but now, whenever I am in Roam Only mode.. Nobody can call my.phone.. When they do, it just goes straight.to my.voicemail.
I used to be able to receive calls just fine, whether I was roaming or not.
Anyone have any ideas of why it may be doing this?? Would appreciate any input.. Thanks guys!!

What is your rom, kernel, modem, and prl?
I took a screenshot of my about phone section and attached it. Is that what you were asking for? I don't know how to check my prl. If you can tell me how, I would appreciate it..

At the top of that page where you took the screenshot should be a Status or Phone Status option... tap that and scroll down to see the PRL.
For example my prl is 60690 and it roams just fine.
Mine says, PRL 21092

& I have come to find out that, if someone calls me it goes straight to voicemail & it's not just when I'm using roam control app.. It's anytime I roam at all...
How can I fix this??

Are they doing work in the area? This happened to me during NV upgrades.

Don't think so. I have horrible service where I live. I'm on sprint, but for some reason I get no signal here usually. That's why I use my roaming sometimes. But I've used the roam control app before & would get calls just fine when roaming. Then I had to reset my.phone and reinstall the app, & now I can't get calls while roaming, at all.
